Super Mario Party still going strong?
Unfortunately Pro shortages will continue to keep PS4 from achieving truly crazy results
My man!Super Mario Party will be massive, I predict a minimum of five million copies by the end of the year.
My man!
5 million in 2018 would probably make this game the best-selling Mario Party game ever in the end with lifetime sales. That said, I can see 4-5 million by the end of december (or otherwise by the end of the fiscal year) happening, but it'll of course be a challenging goal for the game.
Those are good points. It'll be exciting to follow this game's performance in the coming year.It should be the best selling Mario Party game as long as ND Cube isn't magically releasing another one next fall like they did back on Gamecube/Wii. The push for this game is very strong, and I think the joy-con+game bundle at a reduced price is going to do big numbers this holiday.

Honestly, LordKano what are the chances it is the biggest opening of a Mario Party game ever for a debut NPD?

Would you put that down to the number of days tracked or to momentum?Largest debut was Mario Party 6... and it is highly unlikely it will be beat for launch month.

Ahh makes sense. Super Mario Party also had a digital promotion so it'll probably have a higher digital sale possibly?Largest debut was Mario Party 6... and it is highly unlikely it will be beat for launch month.

Also do you see Fighter Z for Switch performing similar to Xenoverse 2 or above/under during the holidays?
Yeah as much as Super Mario Party will do big numbers at launch, it ain't gonna do 500k first month
I looked it up and the game's on GameCube.If Super Mario Party had a full month of tracking it would likely pass Mario Party 6 frankly

Did it really have impressive sales back in the day... or do you mean passing it's NA LTD?

Why was MP6 so big? There had already been 2 on the GC and whilst 6 was probably better overall than 4 & 5 it's not a huge difference.
What am I missing?
Any indications of it moving hardware? I am curious if it has managed to affect Joycon sales in particular.It is. Much better than I thought it would.
Thing is people need to keep expectations in check still. As good as its doing it only has 2 days of tracking and no digital. That's going to not show much of the full picture for how its doing
That's pretty impressive. If Super Mario Party is selling on pace with/faster than MP6 (469k) despite it being October instead of December, then the sales in December should probably be massive as well for the game.If Super Mario Party had a full month of tracking it would likely pass Mario Party 6 frankly
December launch. And it was tracked for most of the month too.
Comparing calendar month sales across titles is by nature silly and too dependent on a number of variables that won't be apples:apples. I use these comparisons in the media notes because people like to talk about them and they get coverage, but yeah, they aren't the best.
Thanks for the update! Was expecting the Pro shortages to be due to saving for Spidey month, but it looks like that's not the case. Very useful information. (^_^)Unfortunately Pro shortages will continue to keep PS4 from achieving truly crazy results
Last bit caught me off-guard. :lol:super mario party will be this year's second best selling collection of minigames after red dead redemption 2.
Can you tell if the shortages are due to lower shipments then normal months with an exclusive (like supply you received during horizon or GOW) or unusually high demand after the launch of Spider-Man?Unfortunately Pro shortages will continue to keep PS4 from achieving truly crazy results
If I'm not wrong some component parts of the Pro is really scarce in the market...Can you tell if the shortages are due to lower shipments then normal months with an exclusive (like supply you received during horizon or GOW) or unusually high demand after the launch of Spider-Man?
You always have some amazing posts. This legit made me laugh out loud.super mario party will be this year's second best selling collection of minigames after red dead redemption 2.
That would be stupid from Sony. They'd prefer sell all the Pros they have as soon as possible instead of taking the risk people buy a PC, a XBX (some have done exactly that), or wait for PS5.Thanks for the update!

On Super Mario Party, September+October results would be 5 weeks (i.e. like a December in # of weeks), so would be curious how it compared with MP6, in that case. Obviously December is a bigger month than the last week of September+October, even if the # of weeks are the same. Would imagine that Switch is probably hitting a wider amount of people than GCN was, though. Not apples to apples, but still interesting for armchair comparisons.
Domt get me wrong, the shipments for the Spidey Pro bundle were very large for a special edition. That said it still was not enough to meet demand and standard Pro consoles are still few and far between.
PS4 is going to have an amazing September still, I'm just saying if shortages were totally fixed it could have went even higher
